SEMINOLE (FOX 13) - A crafty raccoon found a place to nap in a spot he thought would be away from the human eye.

Outdoorsman Michael McCarthy spotted the raccoon climbing into what was left of a dead palm tree and thought the furry creature might have gotten stuck. So he put his GoPro on an extended pole and used it to take a look.

It turns out the raccoon was just looking for a private spot to take a snooze.

McCarthy spotted the raccoon along the Intracoastal waterway in Seminole. It struck some funny poses as it climbed up and into the hollow trunk of the palm tree.
